"Athens to Athens is the dramatic first-ever account of the dual history of the world's foremost sporting spectacle. It is the illustrated, chronological story of the re-creation of the Olympic Games by Pierre de Coubertin, of the often tempestuous and controversial fortunes of the governing body (including three successive boycotts and the Salt Lake City scandal of 1998), together with the highs and lows of the Games themselves."--Jacket
